LOL by then ill have some mags coilovers and some paint job done to my car

i might get a intake 1st coz of the over heating

mr_tec · 2nd July 2008, 10:31 PM

intake will only help it breathe..
when is it overheating when your stopped? ie at lights or just in general?

SLOTEG · 2nd July 2008, 10:34 PM

id suggest replacing your thermostat first mate, mine is having low speed overheating problems too and ill be doing the thermostat this weekend

spoon. · 3rd July 2008, 02:43 AM

yeah gonna do thermostat this weekend aswell at my mates house

i nearly blew my engine today

SLOTEG · 3rd July 2008, 02:51 AM

if your having overheating problems and you notice your guage is heading towards hot, flick your heater on and put it to full hot and turn up the speed to full. that will get hot coolant flowing thru the heater core and take some of the pressure off the thermostat.
only problem is you have to drive with a window open lol and if its raining or you drive to work at 4am like me, you get cold and wet

heater = over-heating aswell

i may need to change the coolant. its either that or the thermostat.

SLOTEG · 4th July 2008, 04:04 AM

do a full coolant system flush as well as new coolant and a thermostat
no oil in the water and vice versa? not using water?
run the car with the radiator cap off and checked for bubbles etc?

grandell · 4th July 2008, 07:46 AM

might want to start a thread in the Tech section guys

if the heater makes it worse then i'd be very worried

spoon. · 5th July 2008, 04:34 AM

ok i tried the heater tech today (fucking strugling up brooklyn rd with 5 people (even though my car is a 4 seater :/) and shopping) and it worked! so dont think its to serious but will be figuring out what was wrong with it in a couple of hours

Nate · 11th July 2008, 06:11 PM

I will be there this year. In the honda too. might not go on track but will be coming on the cruise and up for the piss

Demon · 7th August 2008, 05:32 PM

wholey shit, just found this thread again hehehe

DrTec · 9th September 2008, 10:54 AM

Hey guys,

Assuming there will be a few peeps heading up to Taupo for NIMM from Wellington. And seeing as i just had 4 months off work, thought it a little cheeky to ask for thursday off too.
So i was going to leave Welly on thursday night after work, aim to be on the road by 6-6.30pm, gassed up and ready to go.

Anyone else planning on doing the same thing from the general area? Keen for some company if so.

Central meeting points? Like paramata rail station etc? (for the hutt folk etc)

If not, no big deal. Ill just Mow up on my own and see who i come across for a little State Highway playtime

Discuss.

CIVTEC · 9th September 2008, 10:56 AM

I'm keen.

Will confirm a little closer when the time comes though.

grandell · 9th September 2008, 11:03 AM

grandell · 9th September 2008, 11:05 AM

the old thread was hiding...

we were looking to leave welly about 4, meet in sanson at 6, then head up in time for town thursday night in Taupo

CIVTEC · 9th September 2008, 11:31 AM

^^ Gah, I either forgot or just plain didn't see this (before I realised I was attending) Glen.

DrTec, leave work a little early on the thurs and join the cruise ?

DrTec · 9th September 2008, 04:12 PM

Ah i didnt see the old thread either, I could probly swing that, maybe leave work around 3-3.30. Where was the welly meet @ 4?

Pweeese daddy?

SLOTEG · 9th September 2008, 07:48 PM
